But however aged that makes me feel, I am delighted to be putting my radio skills back into action with various new podcasting projects.

I’m about to go to Edinburgh as part of this year’s writing team for The Sick of the Fringe, a project commissioned by the Wellcome Trust. For five days, I’ll pack in as many Festival shows as possible, making diagnoses about the conversations performers are having in relation to physical and mental health. Some of these will be in the form of podcasts – so check in at posers.org.uk to find those.

Shorter podcasts include a review of CLD: The Real Lewis Carroll, a musical full of songs and scandal that I saw in Oxford. Hear from director David Kettle, actor Stewart Briggs (Dodgson) and writer Jane Bramwell about the production.
